Customer Service: Client Turnaround Timeframes

  2. A single point of contact with backup person per client is strongly recommended for best communication flow.


  3. Evening and weekend support:
    1. eCellar error (that prevents ordering): We fix (asap) else NBD (next business day).

      User error: Wait until next business day for Support to address, or $225/hour ($300 holiday) to address/fix.

      1. Printer/cash drawer failure due to POS browser upgrade
      2. New product error (no inventory)
      3. Duplicate customers in system
      4. Discount error (auto‐discount applying/not applying)
    2. Emergency after-hours support via telephone voicemail: 707-942-9700 Opt. 1.


  4. What’s not billable (included in monthly fees):
    1. General eCellar application support to trained personnel (M-F 8:30AM to 5PM).


  5. What’s billable - The standard billable rate is $150/hour - billed in 15min increments. (Your advanced notice is appreciated!).

    2. New personnel training
    3. Any training/service work that relates to that particular client’s business
    4. User error (e.g. investigation of improper setup of product/inventory/discount/etc.)
